Pools thump sorry Cumbrians

The prolific Reuben Butler (left) struck his third hat-trick of the season for Pools, but he was not alone. HH Strugnell (right) and Thomas McGill also grabbed trebles as Carlisle United were put to the sword. It remains the only occasion when three players have struck hat-tricks for Pools in a competitive match.
